I don't want to be a nurse anymore, and I think that's okay. Being an NP was my job; it's not who I am. There are many people who see nursing as their calling and who they are, and to them I say, that's awesome. But for others like me, it really is just a job, and it can be hard to fight against the guilt we put on ourselves and other people put on us when we decide, you know, maybe this isn't for me after all.

Working in healthcare, especially right now, is HARD. And it's okay to admit you can't hack it or that you want to try something else, like I did. You should not feel guilty that you need or want to try something else because, friend, it is OKAY to change your mind and pivot. It's OKAY to rethink what you want to do and who you want to be. It's OKAY to do what is best for you.

Remember: You can do hard things!
